Hit Me with Your Best Shot — and You Did!

UPDATE: WE DID IT! WE SMASHED THAT OLD RECORD BY A WHOPPING… 1… um, post. (Yeah, uh, relax, people. I promise not to bring this up again till we beat the new and improved 46 hit total — by a lot. That is, if it ever happens. And the Cubbies win the Series. And the Lions reach the Super Bowl. Sigh.)

It’s 80s throwback week here on the blog, apparently. Before crashing and burning on the Greek and Roman historical plays (you’ll have to earn your ticket to the tragic romances of spring), I wanted to point out that the daily hit total keeps rising for no apparent reason.

It’s fun to track though.

The top day is still December 16th, the day after the blog went up. That’s because friends and family rallied to the cause and pushed it higher than it deserved (thanks, gang) to reach 45 — a total that hasn’t been matched… yet. Be gone, 45! The record is now… (gasp) 46. Is Bill the Cat around? No? Opus??

Today we’re currently at 323543 46 (two more to tie! We did it! How much do I owe you? Oh, wait, we’re still on?). Eventually, we’ll get over the hump, I hope. Well, maybe after the Greek and Roman histories.
